She could see herself, shadowy and un- defined as in a mirror; 'moving about in a bright little home where flowers bloomed , in the casements, and birds sang, and a clock ticked. " He is coming! he is coming s :" One of these days r said Dorothy to herself, as she put away the saucer of peaches- and the little pitcher of thick cream on at whitely sconred pantry shelf -"One of !these days r “ A ialoud. tspite o And and hi !his Milk es one so promisies made to tl wild, wide, reeling, .brein there was bat one pe hade-lost Dorothy, his dweet-leyecl. redeeMi ang all most f' I scare and- ooped dow his burnin cps he •couldi his hand: 11 e, and let hi 1 I ---drunk ?"

"Dna good walker,' said the strang- er; and as he spoke he drew flafpock- et flask from his pocket, Uncorked it with his teeth, and drank a copious draught.
